Sorry Seth ;-)

I always thought the absolute figure wasn't good anyway. Just the  
relation between the different readings.

But here goes 1 bar is approximately 14,5 PSI

1 - 12 bar = 174 psi
2 - 9,5 bar = 138 psi
3 - 11 bar  = 160 psi
4 - 10 bar = 145 psi
5 - 11 bar = 160 psi
6 - 10 bar = 145 psi

Hope this helps.
